She cannot help but dread the family gatherings where she is forced to confront the shadows of suspicion and guilt which the unsolved 'Carlyle murder' casts over her family. This year the holiday promises to be even more difficult for Annabel, who has recently attracted the attention of an over zealous journalist, Martin. Suffering from nightmarish visions, Annabel is also struggling to keep her marriage alive.
